It seems the end is near...

After working at Alpental yesterday I found out that my hours are going to be cut because none of the other resorts are open and as a result a lot of the workers from those resorts are heading to Alpental to pick up hours. I'm ready to move on now to pick up other work elsewhere so hopefully I will here back from some of the places I've applied for so I can save up a little bit of money for summer fun. Here are some pictures from Alpental...looking pretty bare over there.

Kayaking is almost an option

Nice after work dip in the hot pool!

The past week

The last couple days have been packed full of work but in between the work I have been finding ways to enjoy myself.

I have been getting out on hikes around North Bend and bringing my camera out to get some cool shots so here are a few from those hikes up around Exit 38.

Moss on a branch 

Cool water on a rock

I even brought my camera up to the pass to take some shots of lift operations up there and here are two of those.

Nice fogged up window

So thats about it. Other than that I just experienced my worst day of work and possibly ever up on the mountain...it rained nonstop for the whole day. By the time it ended all I wanted to do was go home, eat some food, and drink a beer or two so thats what I'm doing now.
